...and what makes Black Star Lake work is that it's genuinely low-key—five acres of condo living where you're not packed in, and homes here run around $638K. The coffee shop is basically steps away, which means your morning doesn't require any real planning. Everything else—grocers, restaurants—is within about two miles, close enough that you're not spending your weekend in the car, but far enough that the place feels like it has actual breathing room.
